Between Love and Friendship Season 2 (2022)

Intense but good

After watching season 1, I was looking forward to this season with great anticipation, and it was good, but there were parts that let me down.

First of all, it was intense to watch at times. The drama between the cast members made me wondering what would happen next. This really showed how much "damage" a misunderstanding can cause. If people continue to not talk to each other about their thoughts on sensitive topics, this is what will happen. But as intense as it was, it was nice seeing how they solved the issue. It made me think "strong friendships can overcome anything".

If I think of the whole show and the concept that it conveys, it really puts these young adults through a hard test. It's an experience where they get to feel all these different emotions, as well as minding each others feelings and thoughts, both their friends and the ones they like. I hope both their friendship and their love goes well after the show.

If I'm going to talk about the cast, it was a 50/50 good and bad feeling. Some were good, while others were bad.

Cast:

Hyejung seemed a bit fake at times, casually saying she was sick during her date and using it as an excuse not to talk to Youngmin. She was promising at the start, but after seeing her true colors her charm dropped to zero.

Dayoon was a pure and cute girl. She had her own ways of expressing herself, but I could feel her sincerity. She has her own charm and I liked how she went her own way, didn't mind the other girls and went straight for the guy she wanted.

Jay seemed like the most real person among the girls, showing her trueself, being true to her feelings. No wonder the guys liked her.

Juyoung is just a noona. Trying to take care of the girls. "Disappeared in the crowd" compared to the other girls.

Yongshik was trying to act cool and show his feelings to the girl he likes, but it all seemed like a front to hide his inferiority as the youngest guy.

Jaehoon was open and true to his feelings, but should have maybe expressed his feelings more to the girl he liked.

Sunghyun - I didnt really understand why they were so interested in him, Youngmin had better looks in my opinion. And Sunghyun wasn't expressing himself and just stayed quiet most of the time.

When it comes to the production, I felt like they should have given Youngmin more screentime. He had a very cute and pure romance with Dayoon, would have been great to seen more. I also think that they maybe could have picked other datepicking methods. I'm saying this with most cast members in mind, most of them ended up staying at the house for multiple days in a row. It was mostly Hyejung, Jay and Sunghyun who were out on dates. It would have also been nice seeing more activity dates instead of the regular casual restaurant date.

All in all, it was a good show, hopefully it improves more until next time. I'm looking forward to it and I'm hoping for a Season 3.
